I chilled it in the fridge for an hour or so, and cracked it open at lunch.
It was a clear, fairly well carbonated beer, and the head stuck around for a normal amount of time. After the first hesitant sip, I was pleasantly surprised. For a Mr. Beer booster recipe, it was actually pretty good. A very light, almost fruity beer, I could easily drink a few glasses full at a cookout or something like that. It's not really the beer you're looking for during the dead of winter, but it's still a good one.
I give this batch 8 glasses out of 10. It scores high because it's my first batch, and I'm very pleased that it's drinkable, let alone good. I was wary about investing any more money into this hobby, since I hadn't even tried this batch yet, but after doing so, I'm very glad I did. I can only imagine how much better my next recipes will taste.
